Re: [mosquitto-dev] Help with TLS and X25519 EC for key agreement
|
Hi,
The easy answer is that I don't know.
More usefully, I would suggest trying to use the "openssl s_client"
and "openssl s_server" tools to reproduce your setup and see if that
works or gives you any more information on why it doesn't work.
Cheers,
Roger

However, I do see the device's Client Hello packet advertising the expected cipher suite (ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256), and the expected public key type (X25519).
